Applications of Environmental Aquatic Chemistry: A Practical Guide, Second Edition By Eugene R. Weiner Publisher: CRC Number Of Pages: 456 Publication Date: 2008-01-17 Professionals and students who come from disciplines other than chemistry need a concise, yet reliable guide that explains key concepts in environmental chemistry, from the fundamental science to the necessary calculations for applying them. Updated and reorganized, Applications of Environmental Aquatic Chemistry: A Practical Guide, Second Edition provides the essential background for understanding and solving environmental chemistry problems that arise most frequently. Diverse and self-contained chapters offer a centralized and easily navigable framework for finding useful data tables that are ordinarily scattered throughout the literature. The book explains how to interpret the significance of water quality data, including expanded tables with water quality parameters and chemicals that relate to water quality. It also contains EPA water use classifications and describes treatment methods for industrial, municipal, and agricultural waste discharges. Worked examples provide step-by-step details for frequently used calculations, drawing on case histories from real-world environmental applications. Chapters also offer tools for calculating quick estimates of important quantities and practice problems that apply the principles to different conditions. This practical guide provides an ideal basis for self-study as well as short courses involving the movement and fate of contaminants in the environment. This revised book is a must for people like me who make their living in the field of water resources engineering where we regularly need to deal with environmental chemistry. This no-nonsense book starts right out with a bang in Chapter 1 with ten numerical explanations of concentration in forms such as mg/L, moles, and ppm. He then tells how to use concentrations to predict precipitate; all things we think we know but need a refresher when writing a report. I like his extensive use of examples because Weiner takes the reader through straightforward calculations that can help make an ordinary civil engineer look like an expert. At the back of the book, Weiner has a thorough 24-page index which means that the book is readily useable without searching. For instance, under lead, you will find five different pages clearly identified as to what aspect of lead is explained there. Weiner's Chapter 8 on Biodegradation and Bioremediation, alone, is worth the price of the book, which can be repaid with just one hazardous waste "cure" project for a discerning client. Dr. Weiner gets down to essentials in this book that is written for busy inquisitive engineers and groundwater hydrologists who want to be credible. His wide use of "rules of thumb" resulted in my using a lot of sticky notes to index my copy of the book for quick reference. While the book is tailor-made for environmental engineers and water resources practitioners, the more serious chemist will find a wealth of information on how their knowledge can be translated and used by practicing water generalists. For the environmental chemist, the book is a good primer on how to use a detailed knowledge of chemistry to solve everyday problems in the real world. In some ways, we can call this book a good example of technology transfer, i.e., how to translate complex science into practical terms for the water quality practitioner. In summary, Dr. Weiner's guide on environmental chemistry is a "must have" for consulting engineers of almost any discipline if for no other reason than it is a quick read and a good reference that can help the practicing engineering professional be comfortable when dealing with issues involving chemistry. http://mihd.net/pavsf8r/__0a25035__via_gigapedia.info__.html |
